m's Q5 pick (2026-05-26): project scope on every Views-supporting page,
with descendants exposed as an explicit on/off chip toggle rather than
always-on. Slice A ships the smallest standalone piece of the Views
system; slices B–E (view_type URL param, kanban, saved-views schema,
defaults) follow on the same branch.
TreeFilter grows two fields:
- ProjectPath: scoped item's primary path; "" = no filter.
- IncludeDescendants: default true; flipped via ?project_descendants=0.
Matching extends to path-prefix across `it.Paths` when ProjectPath is
set; equality-only when IncludeDescendants is off. Multi-parent items
pass when ANY of their paths qualifies.
Picker is a shared partial (templates/project_chip.tmpl) that every
Views-supporting filter strip includes (tree, dashboard, timeline,
calendar). Two states: <select> picker when no project is set; active
chip with × clear + descendants on/off chip when scoped. Hidden
inputs added to each form so non-picker chip clicks preserve the
project state. Graph and admin tools are NOT Views consumers (per
design.md / docs/plans/views-system.md §5) and stay untouched.
Test-source edits (per the 5c sharpened rule):
- dashboard_test.go, public_listing_test.go, timeline_test.go: row
membership assertions tightened from `Contains(body, slug)` to
`Contains(body, href="/i/path")`. The picker now renders every
item's primary path inside a <select>, so coarse slug substring
matches falsely passed across filtered-out picker options. Behaviour
preserved (filtered rows still don't render); the impl-detail
assertion moved to the row link.
New tests: TestProjectFilterIncludesDescendants,
TestProjectFilterDescendantsOff, TestParseTreeFilterProjectFields,
TestTreeFilterProjectRoundTrip, TestSetProjectAndToggleHelpers,
TestProjectFilterScopesTreeToDescendants (end-to-end via /).
/timeline braids every dated thing in projax into a single chronological spine:
CalDAV VTODOs (DUE anchor), VEVENTs (DTSTART), dated item_links (event_date),
and item-creation markers. Default window past-30d to future-90d; ?order=
toggles asc/desc; ?kind= narrows by row type; tree filter (?tag/?mgmt/?has)
applies across kinds. Today / Tomorrow get sticky pills; rows > today+30d
fade. 90s in-memory TTL cache keyed by (filter, window, order, kinds);
busted on any VTODO writeback or dated-link change.
Scope expansion (per head message during 4a): the dashboard Tasks card now
has edit + delete affordances on every row, matching the detail page. New
/dashboard/task/{edit,delete} endpoints share a writeback path with /done.
Timeline VTODO rows reuse the same handlers; HX-Target=timeline-section
selects the re-render surface. Timeline item_link rows reuse the existing
/i/{path}/links/remove handler with the same surface-switch.
VEVENT rows on the timeline remain read-only at v1 (3l decision stands).
Item-creation events render as muted "added X to projax" markers.
Tests cover empty state, dated-doc surfacing, kind-filter narrowing, order
toggle, mixed CalDAV todos + all-day events (with the (2 days) duration
hint), and tag-filter cross-kind. New dashboard test asserts the edit/
delete affordances are wired up.
docs/design.md gains §12 with the full source list, layout rules, time
window, filter integration, cache TTL, and deferred items.
